Dermal Filler

Restore facial structure, replace lost volume & refine facial features.

Dermal Filler Overview

Why Dermal Filler?

 

As we age, bone density gradually diminishes, the skull subtly contracts, facial fat pads reduce and migrate, and critical structural elements like collagen decline. These cumulative changes manifest visibly as:

​

  • Progressive loss of facial volume

  • Emergence of lines and wrinkles

  • Decreased skin elasticity

  • Reduced facial definition

  • Gradual tissue sagging

 

Carefully placed dermal fillers offer a sophisticated approach to addressing these age-related changes, providing strategic interventions that can:

​

  • Restore foundational facial volume

  • Replenish lost structural support

  • Refine and redefine facial contours

  • Enhance natural facial structure

​

The Approach To Filler At Opalesce

​

At Opalesce, dermal filler treatments focus on enhancing your natural beauty rather than making drastic changes or creating an over-filled look. The approach encourages you to embrace your unique features instead of following trends, refining them to highlight your individual attractiveness.

 

Given the intricacy of facial rejuvenation, a thoughtful and measured approach is paramount. A comprehensive initial consultation is essential, followed by a deliberate cooling-off period that allows patients ample time for reflection and informed decision-making.

 

Where appropriate, alternative treatments or combinations may be recommended to better achieve your treatment goals. For individuals experiencing substantial structural alterations, a phased treatment strategy is often recommended. This nuanced approach allows for gradual, measured interventions, with each treatment carefully assessed and allowed to fully integrate before proceeding to subsequent areas. Such methodology ensures natural-looking results and minimises potential complications.

Filler Brand

​

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) dermal fillers are innovative gel treatments injected beneath the skin to replenish volumes lost through the aging process. At Opalesce, after very careful consideration, Definisse™ is the brand of choice. 

​

Definisse™ fillers are meticulously crafted to meet individual needs, offering a proactive approach to maintaining youthful features. At the core of these fillers is hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring hydrating fluid. To transform this liquid into a facial sculpting gel, molecular chains of HA are 'cross-linked' to create a stable network.

 

Definisse™ use a proprietary XTR™ Technology (eXcellent Three-dimensional Reticulation), which they have developed as a unique innovation that sets Definisse™ fillers apart in the cosmetic industry. When injected beneath the skin, these advanced HA gels raise sunken areas and provide added volume that can be precisely sculpted into beautiful contours. The gels seamlessly integrate with body tissue, forming a stable structure within the skin while maintaining an elasticity that enables natural movement and subtle beautification.​

​

If you have been treated with dermal filler that has not achieved the desired outcome or has moved or altered overtime, resulting in unwanted effects, you can consider getting the filler dissolved to reduce or eliminate the unwanted appearance.

 

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that breaks down the bonds holding the filler molecules (hyaluronic acid) together to reduce it's viscosity and to allow it to disperse. It is derived from animals so this should form part of your decision making when considering this treatment, for example, if you are vegan.
